Uk getting some favorable calls

Come on Bruins, Kentucky all ways getting those calls. Going to have to beat the refs also. Terrible no call on offensive goal tending, no over the backs. And ball off Kentucky but refs didn't see that standing right there. Great win, UCLA ass whooping by uc looking better.

When we playing teams like Cleveland state and ark pine bluff, and other teams behind us play better teams and got better wins, it makes sense. I didn’t rank us that way but the AP is stupid

Cincinnati is just one of the teams that the polls love to drop. It would take ten losses for Kentucky to drop five spots. If you look at rpi, we have beaten 1 top 50 team and 3 top 75 teams and they have us ranked behind all those teams. In Ken pom, were respected. We need to just keep winning, plenty of big wins in conference this year. Go bearcats.. rpi gives a lot of credit for just playing good teams, regardless if you win, Ken pom should take rpi's place without a doubt.

Wichita State lost two and played their last two games weaker teams they should of ran away with and pulled both out in last two minutes. We want them to win, they did but they are in a funk, but held on to their top 10. They would be close if not a 3 seed today. Someone, read somewhere that we would be a 7 seed today, really think that will change. Time will tell.

Eggsavier won their last 3 games by a grand total of 16 points against ETSU, Marshall, and UNI. They moved up 3 spots in the rankings. Not sure anything was deducted from them for not playing up to standards. Wins mean a lot more than playing poorly does obviously.

I think UC (if we could have beat FLA by just a single point) would be bordering on top 10. It's crazy...but 7 more points could legit mean around 10 poll spots in this example.

Read an article, think it was from CBS sports, they had one about if tournament started today who the protected seeds would be, we ended up at 13 on list, which in my opinion would be about a five seed, maybe slightly better. Note about us read that we have found a second gear and the Mississippi State and UCLA game were mentioned. Along with 4 game win streak and home winning streak. I will try and find again and post site on here..www.ncaa.com Andy Kat's top 36, if tournament started today. December 26

Interesting WSU ranked below us and SMU and Houston both in top 36. I feel a lot better about SMU than Houston but it would be a big deal to see them both in the top 30 rpi by end of year.

That would be 6 column 1 games between 3 teams for UC to play and a 4 bid conference at a minimum.

Beating top 100 teams like ETSU & UNI helps a lot - better to have a close win against top 100 than destroy a 300 + team..X has only one 100 + team on their schedule for the rest of the year- DePaul at 108

Jay bilas isn't dick vitals annoying but really close with his know everything, cocky attitude. Watching Kansas and Texas game, his first line, what Kansas needs to do today is work it down low if they wanna win. *kansas shoots and hits a 3. Second line, that's what Kansas does best. Smh lol

I don't love Bilas either, but given the other choices I'll take him. At least he would know that Jacob Evans isn't an undersized PF.

yeah i mean i probably like bilas a lot more than most, maybe he comes off like a know it all, but he is smart.


these other guys, they can't get names right, they say the dumbest things. i dont care about catch phrases they've been using for 30 years.
